Why Are People Surprised I Cant Speak My Language But Only English by Ilamina(f): 5:25pm On Sep 07, 2023
Is it Because I didn't go too Montessori or is it because I am not yoruba

I heard yoruba people can speak their language even if they were born in the Buckingham palace, no matter how posh they are

These montessori people might call other primary schools in Portharcourt bush but many of them can speak their language. .I went to a bush primary school but at least I can't speak my language that shows I am not that bush

Whoever told you Yoruba can speak their language irrespective of location is false.

Most do understand the language to an extent, but very few can speak it. And even when they speak it, it will be an insult to the language.

It is expected that one should be able to speak his or her dialect especially 8f u have a native name as ur first name .

Anyone would expect u to respond to their questions in ur dialect after you been asked one in ur native dialect

Once u can't respond they try to figure out why u can't speak ur dialect ..

It's normal in every part of the world .
